Signature Hound builds an HTML signature from a template and lets you share the design by link so colleagues make matching ones. Nothing is pushed to mailboxes, though: each person installs their own, and the free signature can't be edited once it's made. - **Value for money: A.** Basic is $28 a year, or $2.99 billed monthly, for one design any number of colleagues can fill in and install, so a team of five pays under 50 cents a head a month against $2.00 for this category's cheaper quarter. One person alone pays $2.33, the middle. - **Free plan and trial: C.** Free is one design for one person with 100 kB of image hosting, and once it's made you can't edit it. Paid plans come with a 30-day trial for up to 5 designs. - **Features: C.** Templates, your own HTML, install steps per mail program and sharing a design by link, email or CSV. The gap the listing names: nothing is pushed out through Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, so every person installs their own. - **Ease of use: C.** No app store rating on record. You build from a template and follow install steps for your mail program; custom templates need HTML, and an image change in Outlook (Classic) or Windows 10 Mail means installing again. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no integrations on record. You copy the signature or its HTML, or download the file, into whatever mail program you use. These are ToolGPA's own grades.
